Awakening to the Spirit World

Today, practicing shamanism doesn’t mean you have to live in a rain forest or a desert. Thanks to a modern renaissance of shamanic spirituality, practitioners from all walks of life now use powerful indigenous techniques for healing, insight, and spiritual growth.With Awakening to the Spirit World , teachers Sandra Ingerman and Hank Wesselman bring together a circle of renowned Western shamanic elders—Tom Cowan, Carol Proudfoot-Edgar, José Stevens, and Alberto Villoldo—to present a comprehensive manual for making these practices accessible and available in our daily lives, including: How the original practice of shamanism shaped the world’s spiritual traditions and why it is still relevant today • The art of the shamanic journey—a time-tested meditative method for experiencing important spiritual lessons and truths • Guidance for avoiding common pitfalls of shamanic practice • Instruction for working with your dreams, connecting to your spirit guides, healing yourself and your environment • Drumming tracks to facilitate your shamanic journeys
